I am on this list because I am a frustrated USER trying to find
solutions that will help the server admins. Our server is being managed
by supposed professionals. You probably know them so I'll not post a
name. They point fingers at the Horde programmers (or elsewhere). The
responses I have gotten from this list point fingers at the server
admins. And around and around and around we go. In the meantime, I am
caught in the middle with filters that only work manually.

I know it's frustrating to answer questions from the uninitiated. But I
have to agree with swap that this has not been the most friendly or
helpful list that I have subscribed to.
